[edit] FAQ

[edit] How do I get involved?

All of the organizations on this website are run by undergraduate students at Duke University. They depend on passionate committed people to help make the Duke experience better for everyone. They set policies which allow students to tent in K-ville, hold last day of classes festivities, run the coffeehouse and find course evaluations. They make sure that student groups have the money they need to put on events and that student publications are not continually re-invented and competing for the same audience.

In short, these organizations give students at Duke an unprecedented amount of self-determination. But everything that they do depends on students choosing to give up their hard-won free time.

[edit] How do I start a student group?

It's actually relatively easy to start a student organization at Duke. The process primarily involves knowing what you want your organization to do and how you want it to do that. Duke's student governance structure is set up to accomodate every conceivable kind of organization, from the Orchestra to the Humour Magazine.

[edit] How do I get funding for and put on a successful event?

Several organizations will help Student Groups to fund an event. The Student Organization Finance Committee disperses the largest amount, but the Campus Council also has a special avenue for funding.

[edit] Who is in charge of what?

Student Link is kept up to date by the organizations on it. Nearly all of them keep their officer information up to date on their own sites. However, Student Link also maintains a list.

[edit] Can my organization be on Student Link?

Absolutely! The only requirement for putting together a student link page is to sign up for an account and know how to edit Wikipedia. If you are interested in putting your group on Student Link and would like help, contact Andrew Tutt.
